Incredible experience. Long-tailed weasel had her babies 3 or 4 days ago. Today she moved them from 1 hole to another about 100 feet away that was more secluded. She made 6 trips to carry 8 babies. Twice she carried 2 at a time. She was so gentle. Unbelievable that I got to witness this.

Absolutely insane!!! Possibly a first county record, as well as a possible second state record! While looking through a large group of ducks, around here (38°13'38.9"N 122°35'39.2"W), I spotted a duck with a strange face pattern. I immediately guessed it was a hybrid because it looked similar to some pics of duck hybrids on ebird. What lead me to believe it was a Northern Pintail x Green-Winged Teal hybrid was the long pointy tail, black under tail converts with clean white wedges, and vertical white bars.

The first time I had ever seen this, i videoed the entire event as well from entry to exit. It was as if this species swims all the time. I sent it to a frogmouth expert and she had never seen that before. The bird chose to swim and flew away very easily after its swim. There appeared to be no explanation for the bird swimming as it was not particularly hot or anything unusual.

Experts - What is going on here? This male American Kestrel sure did seem to have the hots for this female Merlin. He kept trying to get close to her and even brought her a few treats (insects?) from the grass beneath the fence. She accepted the treats but didn't seem thrilled with the attention. However, when he flew off, she followed him...
